Design Thinking helps educators develop solutions to the problems affecting their communities while keeping the community at the forefront.

However, if you are interested in learning more about design in education, here are some links to major groups / individuals doing great work:

First off, get to know each other.

It works best if one person in the group makes a copy and then adds all members as a team.

However, feel free to make a copy for yourself.

Step Two: Define
